Summary
MY LADY'S SONG
A limo driver. Two porn stars. A senator with everything to lose.
One night in New York that turns into leverage, betrayal, and war.
ACT ONE
New York. Late-night Eighth Avenue. Strip clubs, neon, and power moving quietly behind tinted glass.
Sal “The Barber” Marino is a former soldier of the streets, a man who did twelve years without talking and now makes a living driving high-end clients through a city he no longer trusts.
One call pulls him back in.
A simple job. Easy money. Drive the girls. Pick up the client. Keep your mouth shut.
But the client is a powerful senator.
The ride is being recorded.
And the job isn’t what it seems.
What starts as routine turns into leverage. a blackmail setup that reaches into politics, unions, and the last remnants of old-school control.
As the night bleeds into morning and the city gives way to the open road, Sal is locked in with Hara; young, sharp, and unpredictable. Two worlds collide. Old code versus new survival.
And then it breaks.
A confrontation. A line crossed.
A slap that lands harder than anything that came before.
That’s the moment everything changes.
Act One ends when business becomes personal... and there’s no going back.
